I have a Swing Applet that connects to a servlet using an HTTP connection. When I load the applet in Netscape everything runs fine. However, when I run the applet in IE it takes about 10 minutes before the applet loads. The web server is NT4/IIS4. If anyone has any suggestions I would love to hear them.

applet loading is a browser problem and by the sounds of the problem, it isn't a server issue...check the settings on your browser i.e. the chaching etc and see if that makes a difference

I figured it out. My Java server and the Web server are on seperate machines and they are connected through a proxy connection. I had moved my applet to the Java server to keep everything together and this was the problem. Netscape was able to get the applet through the proxy connection but for some reason IE was having problems. Once I moved the applet back to the Web server IE loaded it right up.
